Re: The Thyroid Sourcebook, 5th Edition

When it comes to what you put in your body, eg supplements as well as food and water, learn everything you can. When I first started taking lugols, I did extensive research for and against supplementing with iodine. I found no credible evidence that Iodine is in excess in our diet, in fact totally the opposite. I also used my own experience as a child, living in countries where the water needed to be purified, my mother used Iodine to clean the water and kill any bugs in it. Every drop of water I drank had Iodine in it, none of the members of my family had any ill effect from all this iodine, in fact the health problems for myself and my family started when we no longer used iodine in our water.


I believe that supplementation with iodine, and many of the other vitamins and minerals, is discouraged by doctors, drug companies and gov't , because they are cheap and they work. The doctors and drug companies no longer make any money from me, and now don't make any money from my friends since they too have started iodine and companion supps.

As a scientist myself I tend to not believe a lot of what comes from drug company testing. I know how results can be skewed in favour of the drug the companies are pushing. I tend to look at anecdotal evidence given by the people that have tried the supplements, like many here on curezone. They have no barrow to push, they are, on the most part, giving an honest account of their own experience.

I no longer have brain fog since starting iodine and companion supps, and this makes it so much easier to sift through the evidence and make critical and informed decisions about my own health.
